About This Item
Indianapolis: Bobbs-Merrill, 1910. First edition. Hardcover. Near Fine/Good Dj. Charles Livingston Bull. 12mo, 305 pages, green cloth; the dust jacket lacks the lower third of the spine, with other smaller defects: the cover has a 6th wraparound illustration by Bull. N.B. Curiously, the dust jacket flaps were left blank by the publisher.
The Danger Trail is the railroad being built through the Canadian wilds in Saskatchewan. "Jack Howland was a Chicago man, which means that he was a hustler, and not overburdened with sentiment." 5 striking color plates by Charles Livingston Bull, including a wonderful one of howling sled dogs.

About Thomas J. Joyce And Company
Joyce And Company has been in business as a professional rare bookseller and appraiser since 1975. Owner Thomas Joyce was the regular book appraiser on Home & Garden TV\'s \"The Appraisal Fair\\\" program, on international broadcasts. Thomas Joyce was the co-discoverer of George Washington's personal copy of William Leybourn's 1679 edition of THE COMPLEAT SURVEYOR, from which young Washington learned some of his surveying skills at age 16. The book had vanished for nearly a century until its re-discovery in 2017. It is now back at Mt. Vernon.
